She really knows the topic, and loves the topic, and she had no problem getting us excited as well.

17. Other comments:
One of the most rigorous classes I've taken and in the best possible way. I appreciated being pushed beyond what I thought were my capabilities.
I really enjoyed the class. Not much else I can say. Thanks!
Really good Design teacher. Knows what she's talking about and critiques are honest, yet respectful. She critiques you without making you feel degraded.
